Ok, I've been more crazy about a different kind of footy lately, but these will do beautifully until Schleich or somebody else realizes that there is something very lovely about smurfs shoving and pulling each other, and falling all over each as well.

I finally completely my football/soccer (depending on which side of the pond you are located ) Kinder series...this is my favorite Kinder series and I am quite happy about it tonight. Most are doubles but I was able to grab hold of the last few that were missing in my collection....

That looks great! Well done Moey!

Very Nice!

[Tojo]

That is a really nice set Well done on completing them Maureen

I don't have any of them yet but that's because I'm a bit wary about buying them on ebay due to the fakes out there, especially concerning the stickers on the shirts which are easily lost & then replacements faked.

Thank you

Tojo, I am sure the smurfs themselves are ok, but I am not sure about the loose balls as I don't know enough about them, and I don't think there is any way to tell if the stickers are fake or not since they aren't on their original paper anymore

I did a bit of investigating just now (Eierlei forum) and it's amazing to me but I think they have an even bigger problem with hard to tell fakes...probably because there are many more Ferrero/Kinder figures (not just smurfs) than there are smurfs...and of course they are smaller as well

I definitly would not spend much money on any Ferrero smurfs because of the easy to fake accessories

Great job, Moey. This is one of my favorite series too and I only need a couple more to complete my set too

I reckon you're right about the smurfs themselves it's the accessories I'm more worried about. The balls are often missing it seems & replacements are faked. But how on earth can one tell the difference I suppose a smurf with faked ball is better than a smurf with no ball but I'm sure we'd all prefer a smurf with an original ball. I hope Syd isn't reading this...

I think a shark thrashing Dragon smurf is desperatly needed...although there may no longer be a need for it soon

For those who don't know what we mean...we've been talking NRL
